Project: 4 Position Tele Electronics Upgrade w/ Treble Bleed
by MikeT
Here's everything you need to upgrade the electronics in your Tele with a 4 position switch and add the treble bleed mod. The first three positions are the same as the 3 position switch and the 4th position is the fatter sounding series position. The pots will fit the American Tele plates. If you need the plate you can find it here:
